Editor problems -- yes im a total editing nwb

February 6, 2009 3:42 PM from

So I opened up the GC2 editors for the first time a few days ago. I attempted to make a custom race with a new tech tree. I started by just opening up the yor tech tree and renaming it. When I do this.. the game crashes to the desktop upon loading a new game. If I use the original yor tech i can start a game no problem but the renamed 100% identical tree fails.

What else needs to be changed to get a new tech tree to function properly?

I think that the crash is actually CAUESD by the fact that the tech trees are identical. Either that, or you typoed something in the tree or in the raceconfig.xml... take a look at the modding tutorials on the stickied posts & see if there's anything to help ypu.

I would guess this is probably the old bug where the tech editor saves a tech with a prerequisite that is either the tech after it or itself (something like that). Open it up and have a look around, see what's changed.
